Edited spelling of Yankovic in thread title.

Can't say I've ever put too much stock into how the lineup is actually rolled out. You'll have the whole thing just moments after the "annoying" part begins, if not sooner. Take a firm grip of your panties and begin debunching...

Since its humble beginnings in 2002, Bonnaroo organizers have found all sorts of ways to announce the festival’s lineup. This year, they have enlisted Weird Al Yankovic to host a three-hour event on YouTube in which he’ll reveal the lineup.

Organizers haven’t let us know exactly when this three-hour event will take place, but they have announced that in addition to the lineup reveal, the broadcast will also feature classic Bonnaroo performances, live in-studio appearances and performances, surprises and giveaways. This should be interesting. We’ll let you know when we find any additional information.

Do you guys remember last year when that website (I think it was for a Nashville newspaper or something?) started uploading pictures of the acts playing Bonnaroo at like 7 or 8 AM? We need to watch that site like a hawk. I don't wanna have to listen to Weird Al slowly announcing the lineup and making dumb jokes.

Each year it's something different. That site likely won't make the same mistake this year. One year it was Roo updating the bios for artists. Another year it was adding friends to myspace. I think Spotify was also leaking some names or something but could be mashing things together lol.

But some other site or new social media thing or something WILL make a mistake. Someone will let something slip because they are preparing the news.

I would rather hear Jim James sing the lineup in a YouTube video, how badass would that be??? Just imagine when he starts a-strummin' his gee-tar and starts "Ohhhhhhhhh Paul McCartneyyyyyyyyy you're gonna be at Bonnarooooooooooooo...and guess who else is gonna be theeeeeeeeeeeere? I'm a-gonna be there toooooooooooooo."
